Curtain air bags
OQX039052
OQX039053
Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear outboard seat occupants in
certain side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity.
The side and curtain air bags on both
sides of the vehicle may deploy if a
rollover or possible rollover is detected.
The curtain air bags are not designed
to deploy in all side impact or rollover
situations.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating curtain air bag,
take the following precautions:
[ All seat occupants must wear
seat belts at all times to help keep
occupants positioned properly.
[ Properly secure child restraints as far
away from the door as possible.
[ Do not place any objects over the air
bag. Also, do not attach any objects
around the area the air bag inflates
such as the door, side door glass,
front and rear pillar, roof side rail.
[ Do not hang other objects except
clothes, especially hard or breakable
objects. In an accident, it may cause
vehicle damage or personal injury.
[ Do not allow passengers to lean their
heads or bodies onto doors, put their
arms on the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place objects
between the doors and seats.
[ Do not open or repair the side curtain
air bags.

During a frontal collision, sensors will
detect the vehicle’s deceleration. If the
rate of deceleration is high enough, the
control unit will inflate the front air bags.
The front air bags help protect the driver
and front passenger by responding to
frontal impacts in which seat belts alone
cannot provide adequate restraint. When
needed, the side air bags help provide
protection in the event of a side impact
or rollover.
[ Air bags are activated (able to inflate
if necessary) only when the Engine
Start/Stop button is in the ON
position.
[ Air bags inflate in the event of certain
frontal or side collisions to help
protect the occupants from serious
physical injury.
[ Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of
a collision, its direction, etc. These
two factors determine whether
the sensors produce an electronic
deployment/inflation signal.
[ The front air bags will completely
inflate and deflate in an instant. It is
virtually impossible for you to see the
air bags inflate during an accident. It is
much more likely that you will simply
see the deflated air bags hanging out
of their storage compartments after
the collision.[ In addition to inflating in certain side
collisions, vehicles equipped with a
rollover sensor, side and curtain air
bags will inflate if the sensing system
detects a rollover.
When a rollover is detected, side and
curtain air bags will remain inflated
longer to help provide protection
from ejection, especially when used in
conjunction with the seat belts.
[ To help provide protection, the air
bags must inflate rapidly. The speed
of air bag inflation is a consequence
of extremely short time in which
to inflate the air bag between the
occupant and the vehicle structures
before the occupant impacts those
structures. This speed of inflation
reduces the risk of serious or life-
threatening injuries and is thus a
necessary part of air bag design.
However, the rapid air bag inflation
can also cause injuries which can
include facial abrasions, bruises and
broken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force.
[ There are even circumstances under
which contact with the air bag can
cause fatal injuries, especially if the
occupant is positioned excessively
close to the air bag.
You can take steps to help reduce the
risk of being injured by an inflating air
bag. The greatest risk is sitting too close
to the air bag. An air bag needs about 10
inches (25 cm) of space to inflate. NHTSA
recommends that drivers allow at least
10 inches (25 cm) between the center of
the steering wheel and the chest.

Icy road warning light (if equipped)
OQX059122L
This warning light is to warn the driver
that the road may be icy.
When the temperature on the outside
temperature gauge is approximately
below 40°F (4°C), the Icy Road Warning
Light and Outside Temperature Gauge
blinks 10 times, and then illuminates.
Also, the warning chime sounds 3 times.
Information
If the icy road warning light appears while
driving, you should drive more attentively
and safely and refrain from speeding,
rapid acceleration, sudden braking or
sharp turning, etc.
Low Pressure
OQX049018L
This warning message is displayed if the
tire pressure is low. The corresponding
tire on the vehicle will be illuminated.
For more information, refer to "Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)" in
chapter 7.
Turn FUSE SWITCH on
OQX049033N
This warning message is displayed if
the fuse switch located on the fuse box
under the steering wheel is OFF.
The fuse switch is turned OFF to
minimize battery draw when the vehicle
is in storage or in transportation where
the vehicle will not be operated for some
time.
Under normal conditions, the fuse switch
should be set to the ON position.
For more information, refer to "Fuses"
in chapter 8.
